It's probably pretty obvious that the Greek word 'anthropos' was the basis of the English words 'anthropology' and 'anthropoid' (a human-like being, especially...
This is to inform members that I've distilled the thoughts expressed here in a series of messages from 4/23 through 5/17 into an opinion piece titled "No Man's...

(Apologies for cross posting) Hello all- Two summers ago, I announced the publication of the hardback edition of my book, Other Early Christian Gospels: A...
Hi Andrew, I think people are still reading elists, just not talking much, so you can still announce publications and reach a reasonable audience. The one...
Hi Andrew. I don't think e-lists are dying and crosstalk and John-Lit are still very much alive with robust memberships. I think we have reached a point,...
... Hi Andrew. You are looking at the wrong page. Go to http://ntgateway.com/E-Lists.htm and that has the revised details for lists like Synoptic-L....
Thank you all for (what I hope will be just) initial feedback. Very helpful, indeed. Special thanks to: 1. Mike Grondin: For allowing this conversation to...
Hi Andrew, I've always believed that such meta-issues as you bring up are in order, and I think the other moderators agree, so don't worry about that. In fact,...
I am of the same opinion, Mike. I don't think it is as much blog competitions as it is cyclic activity and availability of the scholarly community. A new...
I'm rather in the woodwork at the moment reading posts but leaving no evidence of doing so. I have a full-time job and doing a doctorate part-time, which...
I know from personal experience that blogging decreases my ability to participate on lists. I only have so much time avaible for this kind of activity,...
Hello Andrew, Yes, by my observation the decline of academic e-lists started around 2003, although there were signs of trouble before that. IMHO, the trouble...
My theory is that successful e-lists need to have good conversation starters. The decline in e-lists would be due to those people no longer starting threads....
Hi Dave- I suspect your note is going to cause some controversy, especially your characterization of motivations behind the Christian Origins group, but I...

Apologies again for crossposting. I'm really glad I asked the question I did (see subject). The feedback has been tremendous. I think I'm starting to get a...
I may as well offer my two cents about this topic. Speaking personally, the reasons why my own participation in e-list discussions have radically diminished...
Hi Roger, Yahoogroups allows four levels of contact between a group and a subscriber: "individual emails", "daily digest", "special notices", or "no email"....
Hi Andrew, I notice that one of the variables mentioned on Crosstalk was specialization, i.e., that groups with a narrow focus tended to fade away more readily...
Mike, You walk a dangerous line doing that, however. I have my subscription status as "No Email", but I still get every message that goes through gthomas...
Hi Chris, Nice to hear from you. I don't follow your reasoning, however. As I said, I only deleted dead addresses, i.e., addresses where the server in question...
Hey Mike, Ah, I see. I was hoping you weren't just deleting emails that didn't respond to you, as we're all busy enough to not respond to emails some point or...
... I agree, Rick. I'd only add that one of the factors that seems to contribute to repetition is the apparent love of scholars for undecidable questions. ...
Hi Mike-- ... Jungian, Eh? Well, I don't think I've gone around that particular bend, but who knows. When I was growing bald, I didn't really notice that was ...

I think we should all be grateful for Andrew Bernhard's enthusiasm and motivation for having gotten us all to think about E- Lists and how useful and valuable...
